Marvel Rivals, the fast-paced Superhero Team-Based PVP Shooter, is gearing up to drop its highly anticipated Season 2, titled “Flower of Krakoa.” After an explosive Season 1 filled with intense battles and cool hero combos, this next chapter brings a fresh Battle Pass loaded with exclusive skins. I’ve been keeping an eye on this game since it launched, and I’m honestly pretty pumped to see what’s coming.
Season 2 Overview
Season 2 takes players to Krakoa, the mutant paradise from Marvel Comics, for the annual Hellfire Gala. It’s this fancy event where mutants and their allies get together to celebrate and sometimes stir up trouble. In Marvel Rivals, the Hellfire Gala theme adds a classy vibe to the chaos, with heroes decked out in some seriously stylish gear. The storyline kicks off with Emma Frost hosting the party, but things get wild when Ultron shows up to crash it. Two new characters join the roster, too- Emma Frost at launch and Ultron mid-season- making this a season you won’t want to miss.
Battle Pass Skins
The real star of the “Flower of Krakoa” season is the Battle Pass, featuring 10 brand-new skins for Marvel Rivals heroes. Here’s the lineup, straight from sources like GameRant and Destructoid:
- Spider-Man – Spider-Oni: A wintery look with creepy extra spider limbs, designed by Peach Momoko.
- Iron Fist – Immortal Weapon of Agamotto: Bright red tones that nod to Danny Rand’s classic outfit.
- Captain America – Star-Spangled Style: A sharp three-piece suit pulled from the Hellfire Gala comics.
- Psylocke – Retro X-Uniform: Old-school X-Men vibes that match up with Magik’s skin.
- Magik – Retro X-Uniform: The iconic blue and yellow X-Men suit fans love.
- Squirrel Girl – Nut Rocker: A punk rock getup with a bold haircut.
- Luna Snow – Nolaehaneun Manyeo: A sleek black and white dress with feather details, by Peach Momoko.
- Black Widow – Red Runway Veil: Spider-inspired with stun batons, channeling Hellfire Gala 2022.
- Bruce Banner/Hulk – Joe Fixit: A mafia enforcer variant rocking a fedora, very cool twist.
- Cloak & Dagger – Dance Partner: A galactic duo look, with Dagger in black and Cloak in white.
These skins tie perfectly into the Hellfire Gala theme, giving your characters that red-carpet look.
Want in on these? You’ll need to grab the Season 2 Battle Pass, likely priced around 1,000 Lattice if it follows past seasons. From there, it’s all about grinding through challenges and missions to unlock the skins, plus extras like emotes and nameplates. It’s a solid way to level up your Marvel Rivals style.
